Just picked up my 2011 Lo yesterday. Has 3300 miles on it, stage one done with PC5, Arlen Ness AC, and Martin Bros exhaust. I think I may switch out the exhaust to stay with black...so if anyone is interested shoot me an offer. They sound pretty mean, I just want black. 
Any questions you might need answered or advise on something feel free to ask man. A lot of people in here with a lot of knowledge and experience with the LO.
I too have a 2011 FBLo and think you made a good choice.
Not that I am bias or anything
Ride safe, ride smart.

So, over the weekend, I sold my V&H Big Radius 2-2 pipes to a fellow forum member.
Placed order with Fuel Moto for the V&H Pro Pipe.
BACKORDERED until at least May 30th. They said V&H is way behind on the production of the Pro Pipe for 2012-2013 softails.
I figured the Pro-pipe was a pretty common pipe and would be in stock. Now i cant ride.

I can upgrade to with a stock 103 and ABS and hard bags etc.. which will cost me my Lo and maybe 10k. Or I can just say screw it drop about 3k to fuel moto go with a 107 and drop another 3-4k nutting around with decking out my lo. And ride this bitch for the next 15 years.
1. While I'm on the Brake trip, is ABS all its cracked up to be?
2. Is the ride on the baggers/touring bikes really different?
3. Am I looking at this crazy?

2) Touring bikes you ride on, Softails you ride In.. it's a different ride, but I've only been on my friends 2002 Electra Glide Standard.. didn't think much of it really..I liked the radio.
3) I plan on keeping my bike for a long while, so I upgraded my power with the 107" kit with B heads.. only have like 200 miles on it so far, but I'm definitely happy with it.. hopefully I got my leaks to stop. haha.

Wow Jim I got your reply as my post erred out.. nice..
I'm liking my bike dirty. so im thinking im safe sticking it out..
Since there seems to be so many who don't ride their bikes but a couple miles a year.. is there any guestamates on how many miles a typical engine will last? You think with the 107 that would negatively impact that at all?
do you notice if your running any hotter or cooler now?

I hear ya. The way I look at it, unless someone steals my Lo (knock on wood)....it's going to be with me for many years and might as well do it up right.
Fat comfy seat? No need heh...conisder the C&C bud. Way more comfortable than stock and get to keep a bit of low profile for style. Or are ya thinking a nice big Mustang pillow haha?

I would get the C&C w/gel first and see how long until the *** hurts. A couple weeks ago, I finally got a good 4 hours of riding in one night on the new seat and at the end hardly felt it. Where with stock seat, after 2 hours I was pulling over every hour to stretch. In case you are not aware, the new style 200mm C&C solo can come with the backrest....plus still can use the detachables that need to fender nuts (slides under t-bracket). The seat is not up on their site yet. I ordered the old style and ended up with the new style....glad they screwed up haha.
Anyways heres a pic of the new style with backrest...
Hope this helps.
